Beeches St. Mary? You know, Ellen, dear—— Oh, I forgot, you haven't had time to look at the book yet. I shouldn't have had, teally, but somehow one finds time for what one really wants to do, don't you think so, Nick? Ellen, you're lucky! Do you know how lucky you are?

How wonderful to be making the world a more beautiful place to live in!"

"I'll read that book tonight, Nick!"

"My Lord! you do know about them! I thought something like that, in box, within sound of the waterfall."
